Regional Financial Community Practice: Public Machine
區域性金融社群實踐：公共機器

For those who have participated in the era of net-activism, the Internet has always been accompanied by public challenges: In the past, the information we have experienced in the world, from RSS feeds to “dynamic news” of the Facebook, constitutes the foundation of social media networks, subverting and even replacing the electronic imagination community of the mass media era.

Fake news indeed as a phenomenon of emotional mobilization that relies on the high-weighted priority diffusion mechanism of social media, then enhance the exposure of publicity to crisis. Especially in the situation while the news platforms nowadays are losing its value/ favor from the public, the re-emergence of oral communications gradually eroded and swallowed the economic foundation of the authoritative source of a few elites through social system monopoly.

And at the same time, blockchain cryptocurrency together with consumption point system with the same growing strength and competing with the circulation/usage of the fiat money. Our information society has moved towards the out-spread of centralization financial practice from the concentration of information to its decentralization; which brought a changing process such as the rapid growth of P2P financial credit in Europe, US and China eventually turned into bubbles.

The topic about the machine governance brought by Internet of Things (IoT) has been penetrated into our daily life through transaction business, with the support from credit database IoTs now gains a completely new power, and so consumption on the contrary turns to be the tool of control. Do we have a chance to establish our own autonomous mas-up feedback network? And construct a regional financial community practice which provide further opportunity in building a relatively autonomous region under the full cover of the “full feedback system”?

對於曾經參加過網路運動（net.activism）時代的人而言，網際網路始終伴隨著公共性的挑戰：如何從無到有地創造出連結的媒介，並且維持虛實共存世界的公共性的運作。過往我們所經歷的訊息同步世界，從 RSS Feed 到臉書的「動態消息」，構成了社交媒體網絡的基礎，顛覆甚至取代了大眾媒體時代的電子想像共同體。

在這個基礎之上，假新聞，一種依賴於社交媒體高權重優先擴散機制而漫溢的情感動員現象，讓公共性面臨危機；在失去通路的新聞媒體已不再被人們青睞的處境下，口語關係傳播的重新崛起，也漸漸侵蝕與吞噬了少數菁英透過社會制度壟斷的權威來源之經濟基礎。

與此同樣在滋長中的力量，是區塊鏈加密貨幣結合消費點數系統，競爭法幣的流通運用的趨勢。從訊息的集中到分散，資訊社會邁向金融實踐的集中往分散移動，帶來了如歐美與中國P2P金融信貸的快速成長最終泡沫化的改變歷程。

物聯網（IoTs, Internet of Things）所帶來的機器治理（machine governance）議題已經透過交易滲透進日常生活, 在信用資料庫的支援下取得了新的權力，而消費反則變成了控制的工具。我們是否有機會建立自主性的混搭回饋網路, 建構區域性的金融社群實踐, 以便有機會在「全回饋系統」的全面籠罩下創造相對自主的區域?
